LEBANON  VALLEY  COLLEGE  7 

HISTORY  OF  THE  COLLEGE 

Lebanon  Valley  College  originated  in  the  action  of  the  East  Penn- 
sylvania Conference  of  the  United  Brethren  Church  at  its  annual  ses- 
sion held  at  Lebanon  in  March,  1865.  Resolutions  were  passed  deciding 
the  question  of  establishing  a  higher  institution  of  learning  to  be  lo- 
cated within  the  bounds  of  the  East  Pennsylvania  or  of  the  Pennsylvania 
Conference.  One  year  later  the  committee  appointed,  recommended 
in  its  report:  First,  the  establishment  of  a  school  of  high  grade  under 
the  supervision  of  the  church;  second,  to  accept  for  this  purpose  the 
grounds  and  buildings  of  what  was  then  known  as  the  Annville  Acad- 
emy, tendered  as  a  gift  to  the  Conference;  and,  third,  to  lease  the  build- 
ings and  grounds  to  a  responsible  party  competent  to  take  charge  of  the 
school  for  the  coming  year.  School  opened  May  7,  1866,  with  forty- 
nine  students.  By  the  close  of  the  collegiate  year  one  hundred  and 
fifty-one  were  enrolled,  thus  demonstrating  at  once  the  need  of  such  an 
institution  in  this  locality  and  the  wisdom  of  the  founders. 

In  April,  1867,  the  Legislature  granted  a  charter  with  full  university 
privileges  under  which  a  College  faculty  was  organized  with  Rev. 
Thomas  Rees  Vickroy,  Pb.  D.,  as  president,  and  Prof.  E.  Benjamin 
Bierman,  A.  M.,  as  principal  of  the  Normal  Department.  The  same  year 
the  Philokosmian  Literary  Society  was  organized  by  the  young  men, 
additional  land  was  purchased  and  a  large  brick  building  erected  there- 
on with  chapel,  recitation  rooms,  president's  office,  and  apartments  for 
sixty  boarding  students.  The  building  was  not  furnished  and  fully  oc- 
cupied till  the  fall  of  1868. 

The  first  regular  commencement  occured  June  16,  1870.  About  two 
years  later  opposition  to  the  school  manifested  itself  and  President  Vick- 
roy stated  in  his  report  to  the  annual  Conference  that  the  attendance  of 
students  was  reduced  from  one  hundred  to  seventy-five,  the  cause  of 
this  diminution  being  persistent  opposition  on  the  part  of  certain 
brethren. 

President  Vickroy  directed  the  affairs  of  the  institution  for  five 
years,  from  1866  to  1871.  During  his  administration  the  charter  was 
prepared  and  granted  by  the  State  Legislature,  the  laws  and  regulations 
for  the  internal  workings  framed  and  adopted,  the  curriculum  establish- 
ed, and  two  classes — those  of  1870  and  1871 — were  graduated.  In  June, 
187 1,  Prof.  Lucian  H.  Hammond  was  elected  president.  During  his 
term  of  office  five  classes  were  graduated,  the  Clioniau  Literary  Society 
organized  by  the  ladies,  and  the  College  made  steady  and  substantial 
progress,  but  failing  health  compelled  him  to  resign  in  June,  1876. 


8  BULLETIN 

Rev.  David  D.  DeLong,  D.  D.,  became  the  third  president.  He 
found  it  necessary  to  reconstruct  the  faculty  and  retain  but  two  of  the 
former  teachers.  The  Kalozetean  Literary  Society  was  instituted  to 
awaken  interest  in  literary  work  among  the  young  men  by  means  of  a 
healthy  rivalry,  and  the  music  department  was  organized.  In  the  sum- 
mer of  1883  a  large  two-story  frame  building  was  erected  on  College 
Avenue,  containing  art  room,  music  rooms,  the  department  of  uatural 
science,  a  museum  and  the  College  library.  During  his  presidency  one 
hundred  and  seven  students  were  graduated,  fourteen  in  music  and 
ninety-three  in  the  literary  department. 

After  an  interregnum  of  several  months  Rev.  Edmund  S.  Lorenz, 
A.  M.,  was  elected  president  and  took  up  the  work  with  energy  and 
ability.  Enlargement  was  his  motto  and  the  friends  of  the  College 
rallied  to  his  support.  Post  graduate  studies  were  offered.  The  Col- 
lege Forum  made  its  appearance  under  the  editorship  of  the  Faculty. 
With  a  devotion  that  won  the  admiration  of  his  friends  he  labored  in- 
cessantly for  nearly  two  years  to  make  the  College  the  peer  of  any  in 
the  State,  bnt  under  this  strain  his  health  failed  and  he  was  obliged  to 
retire  at  the  close  of  the  collegiate  year  of  1889. 

The  fifth  president,  Rev.  Cyrus  J.  Kephart,  D.  D.,  assumed  the  du- 
ties of  his  office  at  the  opening  of  the  fall  term  in  18S9  He  secured 
creditable  additions  to  the  endowment  fund  but  because  of  discouraging 
conditions  declined  re-election  at  the  close  of  the  first  year. 

The  question  of  re-locating  the  College  agitated  its  constituenc}', 
divided  its  friends  and  greatly  hindered  its  progress.  Some  were  al- 
most in  despair,  others  were  indifferent,  while  others  hoped  and  waited 
for  the  best.  Under  these  conditions  the  Board  of  Trustees  met  in 
special  session  July  28,  1890,  and  called  Dr.  E.  Benjamin  Bierman  to  the 
presidency.  He  was  inaugurated  on  the  evening  of  the  sixth  of  Novem- 
ber following.  Buildings  were  renovated,  a  large  number  of  students 
enrolled  and  the  Mary  A.  Dodge  Fund  of  ten  thousand  dollars  received, 
"the  interest  of  which  only  is  to  be  loaned  without  charge  to  such  pious 
young  people  as  the  Faculty  of  the  College  may  deem  worthy  of  help 
as  students."  The  Silver  Anniversary  of  the  College  was  celebrated 
June  15,  1892,  when  money  was  raised  to  purchase  about  three  acres  of 
ground  to  be  added  to  the  college  campus.  With  the  experience  of 
twenty-five  years  of  earnest  effort  to  combat  oppo'sitipn  and  overcome 
errors  and  misconceived  notions  of  higher  education  and  to  build  up  an 
institution  of  learning  creditable  to  the  United  Brethren  Church,  the 
friends  of  the  College  entered  upon  the  second  quarter  of  a  century 
with  new  hope  and  aspiration. 


LEBANON  VALLEY  COLLEGE  9 

President  Bierman  served  successfully  until  the  spring  of  1891, 
when  he  was  succeeded  by  Rev.  Hervin  U.  Roop,  Ph.  D.,  who  held  the 
office  till  January  1,  1906,  after  which  time  the  administration  was  in  the 
hands  of  the  Executive  Committee  and  the  Faculty  until  the  election 
of  Rev.  A.  P.  Funkhouser,  A.  M.,  March  9,  1906. 

The  presidency  of  Dr.  Roop  stands  out  as  the  period  when  the  group 
system  in  the  College  curriculum  was  introduced,  when  the  athletic 
field  was  acquired,  when  the  disastrous  fire  of  December  24,  1904,  oc- 
curred, sweeping  away  the  Administration  Building  in  a  few  hours,  and 
when  several  new  buildings  arose  on  the  campus — Engle  Music  Hall 
1899,  and  the  Carnegie  Library  and  Women's  Dormitory  in  1904.  The  re- 
cuperative powers  of  the  institution  were  put  to  the  test  by  the  de- 
struction of  the  main  building.  At  a  meeting  held  January  5,  1905,  the 
friends  of  the  College,  resolved,  amid  unusual  enthusiasm  to  rebuild  at 
once  and  with  the  stimulus  of  a  gift  of  fifty  thousand  dollars  from  An- 
drew Carnegie  received  by  the  President,  who  had  previously  secured 
$20,000  from  the  same  source  plans  were  matured  by  which  to  raise  one 
hundred  thousand  dollars  for  this  purpose.  The  erection  of  three  new 
buildings  was  projected — the  Men's  Dormitory,  the  Central  Heating 
Plant  and  the  new  Administration  Building,  the  latter  being  completed 
under  the  supervision  of  President  Funkhouser,  whose  term  of  office  is 
marked  also  by  a  strenuous  effort  to  straighten  out  the  tangled  threads 
in  the  financial  skein  and  to  meet  the  debt  which  rose  to  almost  or  al- 
together ninety  thousand  dollars.  Bonds  were  issued  to  the  amount  of 
fifty  thousand  dollars  and  the  co-operative  college  circles  organized  to 
relieve  the  financial  conditions. 

Rev.  Lawrence  Keister,  S.  T.  B.,  D.  D.,  was  elected  president  of  the 
College,  June  10,  1907,  at  the  annual  session  of  the  Board  of  Trustees. 
He  solicited  $7,700  for  the  equipment  of  the  Science  Department,  se- 
cured the  Mills  Scholarship  $1,000  and  the  Immel  Scholarships  $2,000. 
The  debt  effort  authorized  by  the  Board,  June  3,  1908,  was  carried  for- 
ward successfully,  $50,000  having  been  pledged  before  January  1,  1909, 
according  to  the  condition  of  the  pledge  which  also  required  the  con- 
tinuation of  the  canvass  to  secure  another  $50,000  in  order  to  cover  the 
entire  debt.  At  the  death  of  Rev.  Daniel  Eberly,  D.  D.,  July  9,  1910, 
whose  will  bears  date  of  September  17,  1909,  the  College  came  into  pos- 
session of  property  valued  at  about  $45,000,  the  major  part  being  given 
for  the  endowment  of  the  Latin  Chair.  According  to  the  Treasurer's 
books  the  amount  of  outstanding  bonds  April  1,  1912  was  $43,000. 

In  June,  1912,  President  Keister  presented  his  resignation  to  the 
Board  of  Trustees  and  in  September  the  Rev.  Dr.  George  D.  Gossard,  of 


io  BULLETIN 

Baltimore,  Md.,  was  elected  president.  He  at  once  entered  upon  the 
duties  of  his  office  to  which  he  brings  conscientious  devotion  and  intel- 
ligent enthusiasm. 

GENERAL  INFORMATION 

The  College  is  situated  in  Annville,  a  progressive  and  cultured  town 
twenty-one  miles  east  of  Harrisburg  in  the  beautiful,  healthful  and  fer- 
tile Lebanon  Valley. 

Buildings  and  Grounds 

There  are  seven  buildings  on  the  campus,  the  Carnegie  Library,  the 
Engle  Music  Hall,  the  Women's  Dormitory,  the  Men's  Dormitory,  the 
Academy  Building,  the  Administration  Building,  and  the  Heating  Plant. 

THE  CARNEGIE  LIBRARY,  a  building  of  the  Gothic  style  of 
architecture,  erected  in  1904,  furnishes  commodious  quarters  for  the 
growing  library  of  the  College.  Each  department  has  its  particular 
books  for  reference  in  addition  to  the  large  number  of  volumes  for  gen- 
eral reference  and  study.  An  annual  amount  is  appropriated  by  the 
Board  of  Trustees  for  the  purchase  of  new  books,  and  plans  are  being 
made  for  the  enlargement  of  the  library  in  order  to  meet  the  growing 
needs  of  the  College. 

Two  large  reading  rooms  on  the  first  floor,  splendidly  lighted  and 
ventilated,  and  beautifully  furnished,  are  provided  with  the  leading 
magazines  and  daily  papers.  Periodicals  devoted  to  the  special  work 
of  each  department  are  here,  as  well  as  magazines  of  general  literature. 
On  the  second  floor  are  six  seminar  rooms  designed  to  be  equipped  with 
the  special  works  of  reference  for  the  various  departments,  where  stu- 
dents doing  the  most  serious  work  may'study  undisturbed. 

THE  ENGLE  MUSIC  HALL,  of  Hummelstown  brownstone, 
erected  in  1899,  contains  the  college  chapel,  used  for  all  large  college 
gatherings,  a  director's  office  and  studio,  practice  rooms,  and  a  large 
society  hall.  The  building  is  well  equipped  with  pianos  and  a  large 
pipe  organ. 

THE  WOMEN'S  DORMITORY  was  erected  in  1905,  and  is  a  build- 
ing of  beautiful  proportions.  In  addition  to  rooms  which  will  accom- 
modate forty-five  students,  there  are  a  society  hall,  a  dining  hall,  a  well 
equipped  kitchen,  and  laundry. 

THE  MEN'S  DORMITORY  is  a  modern  structure  of  brick  with 
Indiana  Limestone  trimmings.     It  contains  single  and  double  rooms  and 


LEBANON  VALLEY  COLLEGE  n 

sixteen  suites  of  two  bed  rooms  with  a  separate  study  room.  These 
afford  accommodations  for  eighty-five  students.  This  building  was  also 
erected  in  1905. 

THE  ACADEMY  BUILDING,  the  original  building  of  the  insti- 
tution, and  acquired  by  gift  in  1866  when  the  College  was  founded,  has 
been  remodeled  and  is  now  used  by  the  Academy.  The  Principal  re- 
sides in  the  building  with  the  Academy  boys. 

THE  HEATING  PLANT,  erected  in  1905,  is  in  harmony  with  the 
buildings  above  described.  It  contains  a  low  pressure  heating  system 
of  the  most  perfect  construction  and  supplies  the  heat  for  all  the  build- 
ings on  the  campus.  It  is  constructed  with  a  view  to  the  installation  of 
a  light  plant. 

THE  ADMINISTRATION  BUILDING  is  the  most  important  and 
central  of  the  buildings.  It  is  built  of  buff  brick  with  terra  cotta  trim- 
mings, three  stories  high.  It  contains  the  recitation  rooms  of  the  Col- 
lege and  the  laboratories  of  the  science  department.  The  department 
of  art  has  here  commodious  and  modern  quarters.  The  administration 
offices  of  fire  proof  construction  are  on  the  first  floor. 

To  accommodate  all  these  buildings,  the  campus,  originally  of  ten 
acres,  has  been  recently  enlarged  by  purchase.  It  occupies  a  high  point 
in  the  centre  of  the  town  of  Annville  and  is  within  easy  access  of  all 
trolley  and  railroad  lines. 

The  athletic  field  of  five  and  one-half  acres  is  well  located  and  ad- 
mirably adapted  to  the  purpose  for  which  it  is  intended.  On  it  are 
erected  a  grand  stand  and  bleachers. 

Laboratories 

The  entire  northern  half  of  the  Administration  Building  is  occupied 
by  the  Department  of  Science.  The  Department  of  Chemistry  occupies

in  cultivating  the  heart  as  well  as  the  mind,  and  encourages  all  whole 
some  means  of  promoting  Christian  influence. 

Each  school  morning,  a  regular  service  is  held  in  the  college  chapel, 
at  which  the  students  are  required  to  be  present.  At  this  service  there 
is  singing,  reading  of  Scripture,  and  prayer.  Members  of  the  Faculty 
conduct  this  service. 

A  students'  prayer  meeting  is  held  once  a  week,  and  opportunities 
for  Bible  study  and  mission  study  are  offered  by  the  Christian  Associa- 
tions in  addition  to  those  afforded  by  the  regular  curriculum. 

All  resident  students  of  the  College  are  required  to  attend  public 
worship  in  churches  of  their  choice  every  Sunday. 

The  religious  life  during  the  past  year  has  been  earnest  and  help- 
ful, and  patrons  may  feel  satisfied  that  high  moral  influences  are  being 
exerted  constantly  over  their  children. 


College  Organizations

of  the  Faculty. 

Under  these   auspices   numerous   public   lectures,   entertainments, 

and  socials  are  held,  so  that  they  contribute  incalculably  to  the  pleasure 

of  the  student  body.     They  are  the  centre  of  the  spiritual  welfare  of  the 

students  and  deserve    the   hearty   support   of  all    connected   with   the 

College.

letic teams,  also  three  members  to  the  Athletic  Executive  Board. 

The  direct  supervision  of  all  athletics  is  in  the  hands  of  the  Ath- 
letic Executive  Board.  This  board  is  composed  of  two  members  of  the 
Faculty,  appointed  by  the  President,  two  members  of  the  Alumni  As-

ings are  held  on  the  last  Wednesday  evening  of  each  month.  Papers  on 
mathematical  history  and  biography  are  read  and  discussed.  Cur- 
rent events  in  the  mathematical  world  and  papers  on  various  mathe- 
matical  subjects   have  made  the  meetings  very  interesting  and  helpful.

meetings  are  conducted  entirely  in  German.  As  a  means  of  increasing 
conversational  powers  German  games  are  introduced  as  an  important 
part  of  the  program. 

Literary  and  Musical  Advantages 

During  the  college  year,  the  student  body  has  the  privilege  of  hear- 
ing lectures  and  talks  delivered  by  resident  professors  and  other  men  of 
note  in  church  and  literary  circles. 

The  department  of  music  together  with  the  department  of  public 
speaking  presents  a  number  of  programs  during  the  year  for  the  pleas- 
ure and  benefit  of  the  general  student  body.  Concerts  and  recitals  by 
prominent  musicians  are  given  under  the  patronage  of  the  department 
of  music  with  the  aim  of  creating  in  the  student  an  appreciation  for  the 
best  in  art. 

There  is  a  lively  interest  in  the  drama.  Various  college  organiza- 
tions have  presented  Shakespearean  and  other  plays  of  a  high  grade. 


14  BULLETIN 

A  further  means  of  enjoyment  and  education  is  the  course  of  lec- 
tures and  concerts  under  the  management  of  the  Christian  associations 
of  the  College. 

Administration 

Ad    Uers  ^ne  following  are  the  advisers  for   the   students   in    each 

of  the  five  groups  in  which  courses  of  instruction  are  of- 
fered: For  the  classical  group,  Professor  Shroyer;  for  the  mathemati- 
cal-physical, Professor  Lehman;  for  the  chemical-biological,  Professor 
Derickson;  for  the  historical-political,  Professor  Shenk;  for  the  modern 
language,  Professor  Kirkland.  The  students  of  each  group  are  amen- 
able to  the  adviser  in  all  matters  of  conduct,  study  and  discipline.  He 
is  to  grant  leave  of  absence,  permission  to  go  out  of  town,  and  excuses. 
His  approval  is  necessary  before  a  student  may  register  for  or  enter 
upon  any  course  of  study,  or  discontinue  any  work.  He  is  the  medium 
of  communication  between  the  Faculty  and  the  students  of  his  group, 
and  in  a  general  way  stands  to  his  students  in  the  relation  of  a  friendly 
counsellor. 

.  It  is  earnestly  desired  that  students  may  be  influenced  to 

^  good  conduct  and  diligence  by  higher  motives   than  fear  of 

punishment.  The  sense  of  duty  and  honor,  the  courteous  and  generous 
feelings  natural  to  young  men  and  women  engaged  in  literary  pursuits, 
are  appealed  to  as  the  best  regulators  of  conduct.  It  is  the  policy  of  the 
administration  to  allow  in  all  things  as  much  liberty  as  will  not  be  abus- 
ed, and  the  students  are  invited  and  expected  to  cooperate  with  the 
Faculty;  but  good  order  and  discipline  will  be  strictly  maintained  and 
misconduct  punished  by  adequate  penalties.  The  law  of  the  College  are 
as  few  and  simple  as  the  proper  regulations  of  a  community  of  young 
men  and  women  will  permit.  The  College  will  not  place  its  stamp  or 
bestow  its  honors  upon  anyone  who  is  not  willing  to  deport  himself  be- 
comingly. No  hazing  of  any  kind  will  be  permitted.  The  government 
of  the  Men's  Dormitory  is  under  the  immediate  control  of  the  Senior- 
Juior  Council,  a  committee  of  students,  authorized  by  the  College  au- 
thorities. 

The  maximum  number  of   hours,   conditioned,    per- 
ass  mitted  for  senior  standing  is  four;    for  junior  standing, 

six;  for  sophomore,  seven  and  for  freshmen  eight. 

The  permitted  number  of  extra  hours  of  work  above  that  prescribed 
by  the  curriculum  is  limited  by  the  student's  record  for  previous  years 
as  follows: 


LEBANON  VALLEY  COLLEGE  15 

(a)  Majority  of  A's— no  limit. 

(b)  Majority  of  B's — Four  hours. 

(c)  Majority  of  C's — two  hours. 

(d)  Lower  record  than  (c)- — no  extra  hours. 

The  scholarship  of  students  is  determined  by  result 

ss  n    ,n*     of  examinations  and  daily  recitations  combined.    The 

grades  are  carefully  recorded. 

Reports  of  standing  will  be  made  to  parent  or  guardian  at  the  end  of 
each  term  when  desired  by  them,  or  when  the  Faculty  deems  it  ex- 
pedient. The  standing  is  indicated  generally  by  classification  in  six 
groups,  as  follows. 

A  signifies  that  the  record  of  the  student  is  distinguished. 

B  signifies  that  the  record  of  the  student  is  very  good. 

C  signifies  that  the  record  is  good. 

D  signifies  the  lowest  sustained  record. 

E  (conditioned)  imposes  a  condition  on  the  student.  Conditions 
incurred  in  January  must  be  made  up  by  June;  conditions  incurred  in 
June  must  be  made  up  by  September.  Failing  to  make  up  a  condition 
at  the  time  appointed  is  equal  to  a  record  of  F. 

F  (failed  completely  signifies  that  the  student  must  drop  or  repeat 
the  subject,  and  cannot  be  admitted  to  subjects  dependent  thereon. 

If  the  student's  record  as  a  whole  is  poor,    he   may   be   required   to 
repeat  certain  subjects,  to  repeat  the  year,  or  to  withdraw. 
Decree  ^e  degree  OI"  bachelor  of  arts  is  conferred,  by  a  vote 

of  the  Board  of  Trustees   on   recommendation   of   the 
a  P  Faculty,  upon  students  who   have   satisfactorily   com- 

pleted any  of  the  groups. 

f*     d    ate  Since  all  its  members  are  fully    occupied   with    under- 

graduate work,  the  Faculty  deems  it  unwise  to  offer  any 
work  for  the  degree  of  Master  of  Arts  during  the  coming 
year.  In  rare  cases  sufficient  resident  work  upon  certain  advanced 
courses  may  be  outlined.  But  as  special  action  would  be  required  in 
each  case,  no  detailed  announcement  can  be  made  here.  All  inquiries 
about  graduate  work  should  be  addressed  to  the  President. 

Scholarships  and  Loans 

The  College  offers  a  limited  number  of  one  hundred  and  thirty-dol- 
lar free  tuition  scholarships  to  honor  graduates  of  State  Normal  Schools

LEBANON  VALLEY  COLLEGE  33 


Philosophy 

PROFESSOR  PETERS 
As  there  is  no  such  thing  as  final  authority  in  Philosophy  every 
student  in  this  department  is  urged  to  react  upon  both  the  text  books 
to  which  he  is  referred  and  to  the  opinions  defended  by  the  instructor. 
It  is  the  primary  purpose  of  the  department  to  stimulate  vigorous,  in- 
dependent thinking  upon  questions  pertaining  to  Philosophy. 

1.  Psychology — Three  hours.     First  Semester. 

Special  emphasis  will  be  placed  upon  (1)  the  application  of  psy- 
chological laws  to  practical  life,  and  (2)  the  philosophical  bearing  of 
certain  psychological  principles.  Thus,  without  departing  from  the 
mode  of  treatment  appropriate  to  a  natural  science,  this  course  will  be 
made  to  serve  as  a  general  introduction  to  philosophy.  Text  book 
Angell's  Psychology. 

2.  Logic — Three  hours.     Second  Semester. 

The  intimate  relation  between  Logic  and  Psychology  will  be  em- 
phasized throughout  the  course.  From  this  point  of  view  the  tradi- 
tional subject  matter  of  elementary  logic  will  be  carefully  discussed  and 
the  detection  and  classification  of  fallacies  drilled  upon.  About  half 
the  time  of  the  course  will  be  given  to  Inductive  Logic.  Text  book 
Hibben's  "Logic:  Deductive  and  Inductive." 

3.  History  of  Ancient  Philosophy — Two  hours.     First  Semester. 
In  this  course,  and  in  its  sequel,  Philosophy  4,  the   aim   will   be  (1) 

to  trace  the  development  of  philosophy,  pointing  out  what  of  perma- 
nent value  each  system,  as  it  arose,  contributed  toward  a  final  solution 
of  the  problem  of  the  nature  of  being,  and  (2)  to  show  the  interaction 
between  philosophic  thought  and  the  practical  life  of  the  period  during 
which  it  flourished. 

4.  History  of  Modern  Philosophy — Two  hours.     Second  Semester. 
The  work  will  be  critical  as  well  as  expository,  and  an  effort  will  be 

made  at  reconstruction  on  the  basis  of  the  great  systems  of  philosophy 
worked  out  from  Decartes  to  Spencer. 

5.  Metaphysics— Two  hours.     First  Semester. 

A  thoroughgoing  consideration  of  the  nature  of  being,  approached 
through  a  critical  study  of  Skepticism,  Realism,  Mysticism,  Critical 
Rationalism,  and  Pragmatism.  Text-book  Royce's  "The  World  and  the 
Individual"  Vol.  I  with  library  references  to  Bradley,  Taylor,  Mill, 
James,  etc. 

6.  The  Philosophy  of  Nature — Two  hours.     Second  Semester. 

A  continuation  of  Philosophy  5.     The  meaning  of  Nature  and  of  its 


34  BULLETIN 

Laws,  the  interpretation  of  Evolution,  the  problem  of  Evil,  Immortal- 
ity, and  the  relation  of  man  to  God  are  the  central  problems  discussed. 
Text  Royce's  "The  World  and  the  Individual,"  Vol.  II. 

7.  Philosophy  of  Religion — Three  hours.     First  Semester. 

This  is  an  untechnical  course,  the  problem  being  approached  from 
the  historical  and  psychological  standpoint  rather  than  from  that  of 
Metaphysics.  Text-book  Sabatier's  'Outlines  of  a  Philosophy  of  Re- 
ligion," with  references  to  the  Psychologies  of  Religion,  particularly 
those  of  Ames  and  Pratt. 

This  course  will  alternate  with  Education  7. 

8.  Introduction  to  Philosophy — Three  hours.     Second  Semester. 
Text-book:    Fullerton's   Introduction   to   Philosophy.      Additional 

topics  by  lectures  and  library  references.  May  be  substituted  for  Phil- 
osophy 2. 

9.  Ethics Three  hours.     Second  Semester. 

This  course  will  be  primarily  constructive  and  only  in  so  far  criti- 
cal and  historical  as  its  constructive  purpose  demands.  Much  atten- 
tion will  be  given  to  the  practical  bearing  of  the  doctrine  set  forth  on 
the  pressing  problems  of  today — such  as  individualism,  the  integrity  of 
our  social  institutions,  the  problems  which  grow  out  of  progress,  etc. 
Philosophy  5  is  recommended  as  a  good  preparation  for  this  course. 

11.  Philosophical  Seminar — Time  to  be  arranged.  Three  hours 
credit. 

Primarily  for  graduates  though  open,  in  exceptional  cases,  to  ad- 
vanced undergraduates.  The  following  courses  are  offered,  only  one  of 
which  will,  however,  be  given  in  any  one  year. 

a.  In  Philosophy.  Topic,  The  Philosophy  of  Kant.  A  first  band 
study  of  Kant's  works.  Primarily  the  Critique  of  Pure  Reason  but  also 
as  much  of  the  other  two  Critiques  as  time  permits. 

b.  In  Ethics.  Topic,  Progress.  The  philosophical  bases  of  pro- 
gress, progress  in  history,  the  present  crisis,  the  "beyond-man" — ie 
the  future  trend  of  progress,  etc. 

c.  In  Religion.  Topic,  The  Psychology  of  Religion.  The  origin 
of  religion  and  religious  rites,  its  development  in  racial  historv,  and  its 
probable  future.  Conversion,  religious  growth  in  the  individual,  and 
the  nature  and  validity  of  religious  knowledge. 

d.  In  the  Philosophy  of  Religion.  Topic,  Conceptions  of  God. 
The  various  conceptions  that  have  been  held  as  to  the  nature  of  God, 
particularly — though  not  exclusively — the  more  or  less  technically 
philosophical  conceptions.     Descriptive  and  critical. 

Attention  is  also  called  to  the  fact  that  Philosophy  5,  6  and  9  are 
open  to  graduate  students.

student  will  be  required  to  write  a  thesis  treating  either  some    phase  of 
Christian  growth  or  some  aspect  of  moral  education  in  the  schools. 
This  course  will  alternate  with  Philosophy  7. 

8.  Secondary  Education — Three  hours.     Second  Semester. 

This  course  deals  primarily  with  the  American  High  School  of  to- 
day but  some  attention  will  also  be  given  to  the  history  of  our  secon- 
dary school  system  in  the  United  States  and  to  the  secondary  schools  of 
Europe.     The  course  will  consist  of  two  parts:  (1)  The  general  problems

Oratory  and  Public  Speaking 

PROFESSOR   ADAMS 

The  work  of  this  department  is  primarily  personal  culture,  the  high- 
est development  of  the  personality  of  the  student.  "The  development 
of  the  art  of  oratory  is  the  development  of  the  orator  himself." 

The  course  of  Oratory  affords  opportunity  for  those  who  wish  to 
develop  their  powers  of  expression  either  as  interpreters  or  creative 
thinkers,  through  the  interpretive  study  of  the  finest  in  literature.  As 
the  interpretation  and  adequate  expression  of  the  literature  demands 
a  high  degree  of  mental  activity  at  the  moment  of  speech,  and  the  stu- 
dent must  think  and  feel  with  the  author,  his  mental  and  spiritual  pow- 
ers are  quickened  with  every  step,  and  his  progress  tested  by  his  ability 
to  move  his  audience,  the  class. 

The  course  requires  two  years  of  study  of  prescribed  work.  Upon 
the  completion  of  the  studies  a  certificate  is  awarded. 

Students  entering  the  regular  course  must  have  had  a  high  school 
course  or  its  equivalent.

Historical 

Lebanon  Valley  Academy  was  established  in  1866.  For  forty-seven 
years  it  has  cherished  the  ideals  of  full  and  accurate  scholarship,  and  the 
development  of  character  that  fits  one  for  the  largest  service  to  society. 
From  its  inception,  college  preparatory  work  has  been  its  main  purpose 
but  its  curriculum  has  been  well  adapted  to  the  needs  of  those  who  have 
entered  immediately  into  practical  life  or  professional  study. 


Buildings 

During  the  past  year  the  historic  Academy  Building  has  been  com- 
pletely remodeled  at  an  expense  of  about  $3000  and  is  now  devoted  en- 
tirely to  the  use  of  the  Academy.  The  Academy  building  is  now  an 
imposing  three  story  structure  facing  Main  street  in  the  beautiful  town 
of  Annville  and  to  the  rear  is  the  large  college  campus.  The  building 
is  electrically  lighted  and  heated  by  steam.  It  is  provided  with  hot  and 
cold  water,  shower  baths  and  all  modern  conveniences.  On  the  first 
floor  are  found  the  principal's  office,  general  assembly  room  and  recep- 
tion room;  on  the  second  and  third  floors  are  provided  the  principal's 
apartments  and  accommodations  for  twenty-eight  boys  as  well  as  a 
Society  Hall. 


Examinations 

Examinations  are  held  at  the  close  of  each  half  year.  Other  exami- 
nations will  be  held  whenever  the  completion  of  a  subject  warrants  such 
examination.  At  this  time  reports  are  sent  to  parents  and  guardians. 
More  frequent  reports  are  sent  when  requested  by  parents.  In  the 
Academy  records,  A,  signifies  excellent;  B,  very  good;  C,  fair;  D,  low 
but  passing;  E,  conditioned;  F,  repeat  in  class.  An  "E"  record  may 
be  removed  by  a  test  on  any  part  of  the  course  in  which  the  record  is 
poor.  For  such  test  a  fee  of  one  dollar  is  charged.  An  "F"  may  not 
be  removed  by  a  special  examination. 

For  special  tests,  given  on  work  not  completed  because  of  absence 
or  otherwise,  a  fee  of  one  dollar  is  charged.  For  special  examinations 
a  fee  of  two  dollars  is  charged. 


LEBANON  VALLEY  COLLEGE  59 

Admission 

The  applicant  should  be  at  least  twelve  years  of  age.  While  no 
entrance  examination  is  required  it  is  expected  that  the  applicant  shall 
have  completed  the  ordinary  common  school  branches. 

Each  student  should  bring  with  him  a  certified  statement  of  work 
done  in  the  school  last  attended.  Blanks  for  such  certification  will  be 
provided  by  the  school.  Tentative  credit  will  be  given  for  work  thus 
certified,  and  the  student  will  be  permitted  to  take  up  his  work  as  near 
as  possible  where  he  left  off,  but  any  previous  work  found  to  be  unsat- 
isfactory will  have  to.be  repeated. 

Students  will  be  received  at  any  time,  but  in  general  it  is  to  the 
student's  advantage  to  enter  in  September,  or  less  preferably  at  the  be- 
ginning of  the  second  Semester.  However,  the  applicant  usually  finds 
enough  work  if  he  enters  at  any  time. 

Supervision 

All  students  except  day  students  are  required  to  room  in  the  Aca- 
demy building  where  they  are  under  the  constant  supervision  of  the 
principal.  Thus  they  not  only  profit  by  such  personal  supervision,  but 
they  have  opportunities  for  help  and  encouragement  not  possible  to 
other  students.  Furthermore,  living  in  an  atmosphere  of  activity  and 
application  to  work,  the  student  can  apply  himself  more  effectively  to 
his  own  work. 

Association  with  boys  from  other  sections,  with  boys  of  more  ex- 
perience, will  necessarily  enlarge  the  horizon  of  the  boy  who  has  al- 
ways lived  within  limited  territory  and  will  increase  his  breadth  of  vision 
and  augment  his  usefulness  in  a  larger  life  than  he  could  otherwise  have 
known. 

Discipline 

The  institution  has  very  few  rules  and  regulations.  Nothing  is  re- 
quired but  that  which  is  necessary  for  the  smooth  progress  of  the  school 
and  for  the  attainment  of  the  best  work  from  students.  Our  endeavor 
is  to  encourage  industry  knowing  that  then  occasions  for  discipline  will 
seldom  occur.  The  system  is  intended  to  teach  boys  and  girls  so  that 
they  may  be  able  to  care  for  themselves  when  they  enter  college  or 
enter  the  fields  of  industrial  or  social  activity.  We  extend  no  encour- 
agement to  the  student  who  has  vicious  habits  and  is  not  inclined  to  be 
law  abiding.

Every  student  is  charged  with  the  furnishings  of  the  room  at  the 
opening  of  the  school  year,  and  if  the  furniture  and  room  and  halls  are 
in  good  condition  when  the  studeuts  vacate  a  portion  or  all  of  the  de- 
posit is  returned. 

The  minimum  expenditure  in  the  Academy  for  one  year  may  be  as 
follows:  Boarding  $1^33;  Tuition  #50;  Room  Rent  $10;  Matriculation, 
Physical  Culture  and  Athletics  $10;  Publication  and  Christian  work  fee 
$2.  Deposit  fee  $2,  a  portion  of  which  may  be  returned.  These  items 
aggregate  $207,  less  $5  if  entire  amount  is  paid  in  advance,  which  makes 
the  minimum  expenditure  in  the  Academy  $202.  This  estimate  does 
not  include  Books,  Society  and  Club  dues,  nor  does  it  include  personal 
expenses  and  luxuries. 

Ten  per  cent  will  be  added  to  all  payments  that  are  deferred  more 
than  ten  days  after  the  time  when  the  installments  are  due. 

These  rates  are  fixed  by  special  act  of  the  Board  of  Trustees.  Fail- 
ure to  pay  a  bill  before  another  falls  due  will  exclude  a  student  from 
classes  and  the  privileges  of  the  Academy. 

The  regular  Academy  expenses  are  divided  into  four  installments, 
and  students  are  required  to  pay  each  installment  in  advance.  One-fifth 
of  the  expenses  is  due  at  the  opening  of  the  school  year;  one-fifth, 
November  1;  three-tenths,  January  5  and  three-tenths,  March  27. 

No  reduction  will  be  made  for  tuition  and  room-rent,  for  a  semes- 
ter, except  for  protracted  sickness.  In  case  of  long  continued  illness, 
the  loss  is  shared  equally  by  the  Academy  and  the  student. 

No  reduction  will  be  made  for  table  board,  for  an  absence  of  less 
than  one  week,  and  then  only  in  case  of  sickness,  or  important  duties 
that  compel  the  student  to  be  absent  from  his  Academy  work.  Reduc- 
tions cannot  be  allowed  for  banquet  trips,  or  club  trips,  or  athletic 
trips. 

Students  jre  required  to  furnish  their  own  towels,  napkins,  soap, 
and  all  bed  furnishings,  except  mattresses. 

Any  student  who  receives  beneficiary  aid  from  the  institution,  may 
be  called  upon  to  render  service  for  all  or  part  of  the  aid  so  received. 


62  BULLETIN 

Opportunity  for  self-help  is  extended  to  a  limited  number  of  stu- 
dents in  the  Academy,  who  may  serve  as  waiters  or  janitors.  In  each 
of  service  is  thirty-eight  weeks.  Close  case  the  term  application  is 
required  to  the  work  assigned.  Neglect  of  duty  is  sufficient  cause  for 
the  removal  of  the  student  from  the  position. 

Description  of  Courses

but  a  short  time  and  find  it   embarassing   to   enter   the   public   schools 


68  BULLETIN 

with  scholars  so  much  younger  than  themselves.  For  these  we  make 
special  provision  whenever  occasion  demands.  However,  at  least  six- 
teen hours  of  regular  Academy  work  is  required. 

Election  of  Studies 

There  is  considerable  room  for  election  of  courses  that  have  a 
special  value  to  students  intending  to  specialize. 

The  Principal  advises  students  what  subjects  are  fundamental  to 
professional  and  engineering  courses. 

Facts  to  be  Considered 

Although  Academy  students  enjoy  a  number  of  the  same  features 
as  college  students,  such  as  the  use  of  an  extended  library,  laboratories, 
the  same  socialprivileges,  literary  exercises,  debates,  Christian  Associ- 
ations, etc.,  they  are  in  many  respects  an  entirely  separate  student 
body  with  their  own  interests,  and  conducting  tbeir  own  literary  so- 
ciety and  athletics. 

Scholarship 

A  one  hundred  and  thirty  dollar  scholarship  is  awarded  each  year 
to  the  Academy  graduate  who  has,  according  to  the  vote  of  the  Faculty, 
attained  the  best  class  record  and  deported  himself  in  accordance  with 
the  regulations.

Location  and  Equipment 

The  Engle  Music  Hall  is  a  handsome  three-story  stone  structure. 
It  contains  a  fine  auditorium  with  large  pipe  organ,  director's  room, 
studios,  practice  rooms,  waiting  and  writing  room  for  students'  use, 
large  society  rooms,  lavatories  etc.  The  whole  building  is  lighted  by 
electricity,  and  heated  by  steam,  and  designed  and  furnished  with  a 
view  to  having  it  complete  in  every  respect  for  the  study  of  music  in  all 
its  branches.  A  complete  music  education  from  the  very  first  steps  to 
the  highest  artistic  excellence  may  be  secured.  The  director  will  use 
every  effort  to  obtain  positions  for  those  students  who  have  finished  the 
courses,  and  who  may  wish  to  teach  or  perform  in  public. 

Object 

The  department  has  for  its  object,  the  foundation  and  diffusion  of 
a  high  and  thorough  musical  education.  The  methods  used  are  those 
followed  by  the  leading  European  conservatories.  The  courses  are 
broad,  systematic,  progressive,  and  as  rapid  as  possible  and  the  conser- 
vatory offers  the  means  for  a  complete  education  in  musical  art  at  a 
moderate  cost. 

Description  of  Courses 

I.   PIANOFORTE 

The  course  in  Pianoforte  is  divided  into  five  divisions;  Sub-Fresh- 
man, Freshman,  Sophomore,  Junior  and  Senior. 

The  course  marked  out,  must,  however,  necessarily  be  varied  ac- 
cording to  the  ability  and  temperament  of  the  pupil.  Many  works  must 
be  studied  by  all,  but  there  is  much  that  may  be  essential  for  one  stu- 
dent and  not  at  all  necessary  for  another.  Individual  instruction  only 
is  given. 

A  system  of  technics  is  used  that  is  in  line  with  the  most  approved 
methods.  Special  attention  is  paid  to  the  development  of  a  true  legato 
touch  and  a  clear,  smooth  technique.  The  use  of  the  pedal  so  much 
neglected  is  emphasized.  At  the  same  time  expression  and  interpre- 
tion  are  not  neglected.  Technical  and  theoretical  ability  are  worthless, 
except  as  it  enables  the  performer  to  bring  out  the  beauties  and  mean- 
ing of  the  composer. 

By  a  recent  act  of  the  Executive  Board  arrangements  were  made  for 


74  BULLETIN 

a  teacher  to  give  instruction  to  children  and  others  in  the  elementary 
grades  of  the  pianoforte  course  at  a  cost  within  the  reach  of  all.  This 
work  will  be  carried  on  according  to  the  methods  in  use  in  the  leading 
Conservatories. 

For  such  instruction,  the  rate  of  tuition  will  be  thirty-five  cents  per 
lesson.  This  enrollment  as  a  regular  student  of  the  Conservatory  will 
entitle  the  student  to  all  privielges  of  the  institution.  The  advantages 
to  be  derived  from  appearing  in  recital  classes,  receiving  instruction  in 
stage  deportment,  as  well  as  opportunities  for  hearing  and  associating 
with  other  music  students,  are  certain  to  act  as  incentives  to  better, 
more  conscientious  work. 

Memorizing  music  is  required  of  all  students.  It  is  a  great  acqui- 
sition to  be  able  to  perform  a  number  of  selections  from  memory. 

Sight  Reading — This,  although  to  a  certain  extent  a  natural  gift, 
can  be  greatly  improved  by  systematic  work.  One  who  can  read  well 
has  all  music  at  his  command,  while  a  poor  reader  has  but  the  few 
pieces  which  may  have  been  learned. 

Practice — Special  effort  is  made  to  teach  pupils  how  to  practice. 
Difficult  places  are  pointed  out  and  the  students  are  taught  how  to  learn 
them  in  the  quickest  and  most  thorough  manner.  Quality  is  of  more 
value  than  quantity  in  practice. 

Ensemble  Playing — It  is  impossible  to  overestimate  the  value  of 
thorough  training  in  duet,  trio  and  quartette  playing.  Students  are 
given  drill  in  these  as  well  as  in  accompaniment  playing. 

II.— VOCAL   MUSIC 

The  basis  of  all  music  studies  should  be  vocal  music.  Singing  de- 
velopes  the  musical  ear  and  leads  to  a  discernment  of  tone  color  without 
which  the  fundamental  principles  of  technique  and  touch  on  the  piano- 
forte cannot  be  obtained. 

The  method  used  is  largely  that  of  the  Italian  schools,  but  no  one 
method  is  employed  exclusively.  The  development  of  a  pure  tone  and 
an  easy  and  natural  control  of  the  voice  in  singing  is  the  end  which  is 
sought.  Correct  breathing,  intonation,  attack,  legato,  accent,  phrasing 
and  pronunciation  are  features  of  technical  drill.  At  the  same  time 
naturalness  and  an  artistic  style  of  singing  are  constantly  urged  upon 
the  student. 

III.  -THE  ORGAN 

The  churches  of  our  country  are  making  an  increasing  demand  for 
well  trained  organists.  The  organ  is  no  longer  looked  upon  as  an  in- 
strument solely  for  accompaniments  and  church  use,  but   has   taken  its 


LEBANON  VALLEY  COLLEGE  75 

place  among  solo  instruments  and  gained   a  distinct   recognition   from 
the  music-loving  public. 

A  large  field,  therefore,  is  open  to  the  student  of  the  Organ.  The 
work  as  outlined  aims  to  provide  a  thorough  training  in  all  that  per- 
tains to  a  mastery  of  the  organ  for  church  or  concert  use.  A  two-man- 
^ual  Moller  pipe  organ  is  used  in  the  Conservatory. 

IV.— THE  VIOLIN 

Among  the  stringed  instruments,  the  Violin  stands  as  one  of  the 
oldest  and  has  always  been  admired  for  its  beautiful  and  thrilling  strains. 

The  musical  possibilities  within  the  compass  of  the  violin  are  mar- 
velous and  unexcelled  by  any  other  instrument.  The  best  artists  of  the 
olden  and  modern  times  were  skillful  on  the  violin,  and  it  appeals  to 
those  of  the  finest  musical  taste  today. 

Nowhere  in  English  literature  do  we  find  a  nobler  or  more  glowing 
tribute  to  the  violin  than  is  the  little  poem  penned  by  our  own  immor- 
tal "Autocrat"  where  he  places  the  violin  among  the  highest  order  of 
musical  instruments. 

V.- THEORETICAL  MUSIC 

Theoretical  studies  are  essential  to  rapid  and  comprehensive  sight 
reading  and  to  excellence  in  the  higher  grades  of  music.  Good  pedal- 
ing depends  on  a  knowledge  of  harmony,  and  memorizing  is  greatly 
facilitated  by  it. 

An  intelligent  insight  into  the  foundation,  upon  which  rests  the  art 
of  music,  gives  interest  to  the  pupils  in  their  playing  and  singing  and 
makes  them  musicians,  as  well  as  performers. 


Recitals 

Students'  Thursday  Evening  Recitals — At  least  twice  each  term  a 
recital  is  given  in  which  students,  who  have  been  prepared  under  the 
supervision  of  the  instructors,  take  part.  These  recitals  furnish  incen- 
tives to  study  and  experience  in  public  performance.    . 

Students'  Recital  Class — Students  who  are  not  sufficiently  advanced 
to  appear  in  the  Thursday  Evening  Recitals  are  given  experience  in 
public  performance  in  the  Students'  Recital  Class.  These  classes  are 
not  open  to  the  public.  Rules  governing  Concert  Deportment  are 
brought  to  the  attention  of  the  students  and  each  performer  shown  what 
is  expected  of  him  or  her  when   before   an   audience.     The   result   is   a 


76  BULLETIN 

smoother  and  more  satisfactory  appearance  in  the  Evening  Recitals 
when  assigned  to  such  work. 

Artist  Recitals — Not  less  important  than  the  daily  class  room  work 
is  the  opportunity  afforded  students  of  hearing  the  representative  works 
of  the  great  masters  performed  by  artists  of  recognized  ability  of  this 
and  foreign  countries.  These  recitals  have  met  with  much  favor  and 
enthusiasm  among  the  students  and  citizens. 

Senior  Recitals — Each  candidate  for  graduation  shall  give  a  public 
recital  during;  the  last  vear.
